  1. No bother. Just let me know if you want it. Cheers. Lew.
  2. Just shelled out £270 for a new one of these from nissan as the bush in mine was gubbed making a nasty clonking sound. Only after I bought a new one from Nissan, I found out that there are companies that sell the replacement bushes for 30ish quid (some traders on here). It seems a shame to bin this as the main part (the alloy arm) is totally servicable, it just needs a new bush. Not sure if its worth anything TBH, but im trying to get some cash together for a new exhaust. £30 if anyones interested? Cheers, Lew.
  3. Idealy second hand. I did have the money for a new one but just had to pay out £350 for new suspension parts so am a bit skint. If I can find a cheap enough second hand one I can get it now, otherwise I'll have to save up for a new one. Probably a cobra from CS.
  4. Nothing too cheap (japspeed), somthing mid range, like a scorpion or cobra etc. Looking for Y- pipe back, or cat back if its the right price. Will pick up if local (Central Scotland) or could possibly arrange for a courier pick up. Cheers. Lew.
  5. Going back to my original post though, does anyone know if nissan actually acknowledged this fault with CD players that basicly don't work and offered to fix or replace them for free?
  6. Any reccomendations on a plug and play alternative that aint too much cash? I suppose a usb slot would be a big bonus.
  7. I know thy are a common issue, but mine is totally useless. I was just wondering if it was ever acknowledged by nissan and they issued replacements? If so, are they likely to replace my 2006 unit? What are you supposed to do about it if they dont? I know I can put an aftermarket double din head unit, but I really want to keep it looking OEM.
  8. Looks like a good app. I dont think the cops could use much of what you filmed against you, unless you videoed yourself running down pedestrians or somthing! I got told off on here the other day for saying I did 85 on a motorway (which I did!). I would love to see a motoring conviction arise from the evidence of 'internet chatroom banter'!
  9. Yeah, I did read about the bananna bars and drop links via the search button. Guess i'll check the drop links first. How do you disconnect them? is it just a case of unbolting them? As for the bananna bar, can you change the bush or do you replace the whole bar? DIY or garage job you think? Whts the best place for these types of suspension spares? Cheers.
  10. Well I've only had the car a week and the problems have started. This one is a really nasty suspension clunk when the wheels go over rough surfaces. Its really taking the fun out of driving it. A search throws up a TSB from nissan saying to tighten some link bolts, which I have and they wont go any tighter so I dont think its that. I have jacked up both sides and had the wheels off looking for play in anything and cant seem to find anything loose or worn. Any ideas?
  11. Well spotted! It was one of the minor 'defects' the dealer 'forgot' to mention. The bottom of the Z had actually broken off so I just took the whole thing off as it looked crap. New badge is already on order
  12. Yeah, private plate. Its really an 06 plate. Cheers for the comments guys.
  13. Really pleased with it. I braved the wind and rain today to give it a basic clean to get the ton of salt that had accumilated on it from the drive home from england yesterday. Feel a bit better now I've checked and topped up all the fluids and addressed some minor cosmetic issues. Only thing of concern is what I mentioned in the other thread about the clunk in higher gears when jumping on the gas. Anyway, Its a real hoot to drive and sounds great. So some pics as I promised...
  14. Cheers. I wouldnt dare take a pic at the moment. After driving up the M6 with the amount of salt on it, its white, not black! Will try to give it a quick clean later if the rain stops. I have checked the FAQ's but the noise dosent seem to be what is described in them.
